You can just simplify to make an equivalent equation:
(2)(3x + 8) = 5 ⇒ 6x + 16 = 5

Answer:
d c a
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>1. Let t = time in years, with t = 0 representing the year 2005. Let f(t) = the number of students enrolled at the private school and g(t) = the number of students enrolled at the public school. Create the two functions to represent the situation.
f(t) = 85 + 18t </span>⇒ y = 85 + 18x<span>
g(t) = 95 + 15t </span>⇒ y = 95 + 15x
y = y
85 + 18x = 95 + 15x
18x - 15x = 95 - 85
3x = 10
x = 10/3
x = 3 1/3
y = 85 +18(10/3) = 85 + 180/3 = 85 + 60 = 145
y = 95 + 15(10/3) = 95 + 150/3 = 95 + 50 = 145
x = 10/3 or 3 1/3
y = 145
Answer:
z = 61
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle is congruent (equal to) the sum of the 2 farthest angles from it, so you can set the equation like this:
z + z - 11 = z + 50
Add like terms, which would be the 2 "z's" on the left side:
2z - 11 = z + 50
Then subtract the z on the right side from both sides:
2z - 11 = z + 50
-z -z
___________
z - 11 = 50
Add 11 to both sides:
z - 11 = 50
+ 11 +11
________
z = 61
160/140 = x/56
cross multiply
(140)(x) = (160)(56)
140x = 8960
x = 8960/140
x = 64 lbs <== Vince's weight on the other planet
